The leaves near the top of my baby look like claws? What causes this?

Yes, you most defiantly NEED way more information; and pics would help out a ton too.

I can't help ya without pics on this matter.... the only thing I can say is it sounds like you are killing them with nutrients. FF big bloom's cap is a little over a tsp if I remember correctly...... so you are using a lot of nutrients, especially with FFOF soil being so rich as it is and depending on how long the plants have been in the mixture.
Not testing the pH Is another boo boo... you always want to get your pH tested; even if you have to use strips.
pH can cause lock out and even cause twisted distorted growth on the leaves.
How tall are your plants?

my baby is 2 feet tall. Okay so next feeding ill only feed w/1 cap and see if anything clears up. What else can i give her to help her thru flowering? When can i start using molasses? How much? I want her to be super frostyy!!!!!
Frosty depends on nuterints and the most important factor is the strain of the plant; without pics it's hard to say what is really wrong with your plant...... 2 feet tall and feeding that much I can tell you are burning them.
How long have they been in flowering? I would worry more now that you are in flowering and have a nutrient burn issue; you will need to flush out your soil mixture I have no clue how big a 10 in pot is it could be any size depending on how tall or wide it is......
2 feet plants I would use around 2 gallons of water to flush her out real good; I would feed every 7 days with 1 tsp per gallon of water; use a teaspoon and not a capfull.
Also how long have they been in the FFOF mixture?

I tried 12/12 from seed and it seems like its taken longer than expected but i think its cuz of the cfls. They have been in FFOF from seed, I did one transplant into a bigger pot. Thanks for the feedback yall i appreciate it. Once I get a camera to use ill be able t post pics asap
Why did you go from 12/12 from right seed..... you can't do that.... you got to give time to the plant to mature first......
CFL's are not going to cause claw like leaves dude; only if they are an inch away from the plant........
sounds like to me you did not do much reasearch before plopping those seeds into the soil..... not reading up a bit causes a lot of problems during the grow.....

i hate when people ask for help w/no pics
claw tips are 1 of three common things IME...
1-Nitrogen toxicity..
2-Reveg syndrome..
3-Over-fertalized
similer to #1 but the leafs are burnt aswell..
sounds like #2 if you only have it on the top new leafs. did u have any lightleaks?

Hey digital, you can scrap the re veg one; for this situation, I agree with you re vegging does do that; but in this situation he went from seedling to 12/12 lol

I didnt mean the cfls caused it I was saying thats why it took so long to notice signs of flowering. I did research before i started this and i did 12/12 from seed becuz I dont have much time. I have seen threads that were 12/12 from seed w/good results...

yeah 12/12 from seed is okay, the plants just grow a little bit slower in the beginning and yield less, not bad for them or anything

What Technique are you using? (SOG, SCROG etc) uhh cheap closet setup w/cfls
because "cheap closet setups" tend to have light leaks, i would think that you can dig that reveg syndrome theory back out of the scrap box. just my 2 cents... deflating everyday

Hey geezer.. thanks bro I really appreicate your concern!
Yes, I am so happy to be back with the family thats for sure, I try to be as generious as I can, always happy to lend a hand if I can
It's ok bro; it's the thought that counts most to me

Yeah i got some serious light leakage..For this round tho this is gonna have to do. This is my 5th try to actually get to and thru flowering, first successful try so far. Every other time my seedlings died cuz the tap water i was using had high pH. I know my yield will be less but i juz wanna have an actual harvest this time.

rootbound definitely could be the problem...If i transplanted at this stage into a new pot and fresh FFOF would it be too much nitrogen for my baby during flowering? I dont want her to get any taller cuz it would be a bitch to rearrange the lights. its like the main cola is juz starting to form now...

SORRY ABOUT THE REVEG MAN THATS A BUMMER.burninheavy420 said:
good idea trying to finish one up before moving on.
my first one (uploading currently unavailable) was quite shabby.. but it got me high was a proud day.
*edit im not sure where ur growing but if its in a closet home de-pot has some foam seals for doors for just a few bucks... i did that for my closet when i was growing in there. might also want to get a brush sweep for the door...for the light...
